an aesthetic data visualization representing the development of IPO's (Initial Public Offering) at the Swiss financial center. the left circle illustrates IPO-companies, arranged by their affiliation to different economic branches. the distance of a companies' representative to the center displays the 'performance' of the IPO. the middle circle shows the different financial intermediaries structured by their functions (e.g. banks, auditors, legal advisors). the closer one representatives' position to the circle center, the more mandatories were accompanied by this intermediary during a specific period of time. in the right circle, one can compare the importance of an area within the Swiss financial center by its amount of actors (IPO-companies & financial intermediaries) that are located in this region.
